Which Android to get?

Flange/Flanders

Hi folks,

Novice when it comes to this tablet malarkey and thinking of investing in a relatively cheapish tablet, mostly for looking at college notes and surfing the net. Brother had a 7" tablet and that was too small for me so was thinking something around a 10". Anyone have any experience with these brand:

Saw this one in DID for €169. 10.1" with 16gb storage.

This one is also in did for €109. Comes with the keyboard thing which I think could be handy. 9" with 8gb storage.

This one is in Harvey Normans for €149.

One of my mates mentioned to me about recommissioned ones on the likes of amazon or pixmania, would these be good working ipads and tablets? Sorry, I'm really slow at getting to know technology!

Thanks!

If buying a tablet. Buy the 7inch google nexus 2nd gen. Its well worth the money. Stay away from them cheaper tablets. They wont last...stick with the like of google nexus or samsung tabs.

But i wud recommend the 7inch google nexus. Very fast and great quality for the price. Think they 249euro...and it has to be 2gen 2013 model..

Hope this helps

I bought a android tablet before Christmas and the 8" galaxy tabs a great machine at about 230 or the one I went for the Lg for 300. The lg has a Beautiful display and is pretty well specced. The galaxy is pretty decent too and with expandable memory it's a good buy.

The nexus doesn't have expandable memory so you need to buy it big enough to last. This was one of hype only reasons I didn't buy a nexus.

Bought a 1st gen Nexus 7 refurb from dabs.ie. I'm very happy with it & the price €130. It's working perfectly & I got a 32 gb otg usb stick to play movies etc. when we're out anywhere. So along with the 32gb internal memory I'm not going to be stuck for space.

Simple rule of thumb for all these type of questions : buy the most expensive one you can afford.

I had iPad2 and sold it over the Xmas to fund a new nexus 7, and I'm very happy with my choice even though it has a smaller screen.

If you want 7 inch screen and you can afford 230 for the N7, you'd be mad not to get it.

But have a clear budget first, and work from there.

This is a pretty good tab if you want an iPad size tablet. The hanspree is the best of the ones you have linked. Ebuyer also have a good selection of reasonably priced tabs.
